Living in the Nation's Capital I see hundreds of tourist in my daily travels. Many of the tourists are absolutely clueless. They have several maps but have no clue where they are going. Also I have never understood the concept of buying a new wardrobe to go on vacation. So i made a list of things people should be mindul of when you are touring.

- Plan an itinerary before you come with sites you would like to see so you wont have to criss-cross the entire city or area you are visiting.

- Try to not to stick out by wearing regular clothes. Stay away from the palm tree print polos, and the white belts, and the huge cameras.

- Try to pick up on the regions customs like standing to the right on the escalator so others can walk down on the left.

- Dont get lost, be aware of your surroundings.

Feel free to add on to this list.
